Ragnarblackmane: My family has a proud tradition of many nurses, but no doctors. I've met many more nice, friendly nurses than I have doctors, who all seem brusque and busy and generally as if they have better things to be doing. I'm sure that's not true for all of them, just apparently most of the ones I've met.
I can attest to this, both personally, and in regards to my parents and grandmother. Some doctors are very nice, but from my experience, most definitely need to get a smaller ego and more bedside manners.

ddickinson: I couldn't agree more, you can't beat spending some relaxing time with someone special.

I guess it's a bit slow in here as everyone is getting over the holidays and preparing to get back to work, school, ect. But that's the nice thing about this thread, though, even if it's been a while you can still come back and post. It's nice to have somewhere on the forum for random stuff, especially when you get to talk about it with a group of wonderful girls and guys.
Indeed. Because why talk about one thing when you can talk about everything instead?
And yes, good company certainly does help everything along. =)

ddickinson: How are you today, Agent? I hope you are doing well?
Pretty good. Slept well, feel decent, there is a cat on my lap.
I spent the entire morning finishing the greatest adventure game I've ever played. (Everyone be sure to +1 LaPtiteBete for gifting it to me. Here is a recent post to practice on.)

I'm glad to hear you are having a good day. What adventure game did you finish this morning? You have me curious with you describing it as the greatest adventure game.

P.S. +1'd our lovely French lady. :-)

King's Quest VI was my favorite for over 20 years. Today, it moved to second place.

It is indeed a very good game, not quite my greatest, but still a great game none the less.

I'm not sure I have one. I know it sounds silly, but I don't really have a favourite game of any genre. Different games have different meanings to me, for example, if I was to base it on nostalgia, I would have to say Simon the Sorcerer, if I was to base it on the most recent I played that I really liked, then it would have to be I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. But these can change depending on my mood or as I play newer (or thanks to GOG, older) adventure games.

It doesn't sound silly to me.
This might be silly, though - I am the same way with all but two genres. I have a favorite adventure and a favorite FPS. Any other genre, and I couldn't name favorites or rank games if my life depended on it.
I don't know why I rank adventures and shooters.

There are some games that I can pick a favourite, but not many, and many of these games are my favourite due to nostalgia, which again, can change. What is your favourite FPS? I do not play a lot of FPS games, usually just when my brother visits, we play a life each, or a level each, which ever is more fair to the poorer player (me). :-)

No One Lives Forever is my favorite FPS. Nostalgia is a factor for sure, but it is also just a really unique game that still feels fresh. I have never found a game quite like it.

Off topic... My family just spontaneously started singing "You've Got A Friend" by James Taylor in the kitchen...

I have never played No One Lives Forever, it's a shame it's not on GOG. The last FPS I played was Chaser (which is very hard, me and my brother died, a lot), my next FPS will be the first Stalker game, which someone kindly gifted me for Christmas.

I have not heard that song for some time. Did they have the radio or television on? Sometimes I get part of a tune from an advert or a t.v. show and it can get me singing the song, even if I don't realise it.

No. My brother just mentioned out of the blue that he recently started liking James Taylor, when he didn't really like him in the past. Next thing I hear, three people are harmonizing around the table.

A great song, featured on a classic episode of The Simpsons, "Deep Space Homer".

That would be the closest, but it didn't feel quite as epic as NOLF 1 to me.
I liked the variety of NOLF 1's missions more. NOLF 2's missions were mostly down-to-earth (with the exception of being inside a tornado.)

XD I was just going to mention, kitana fight inside of a house inside of a tornado.
Ultimately though I guess you are right. The 1st does seem to have a wider variety of genres whereas #2 is a pure shooter beginning to end, minus boss fights of course.
